The master blueprint has already been constructed, but there will be plenty of surprises along the way as well. And since our goal isn’t to leave everyone guessing, here are a few things you can expect this year from the fantasy staff at Baseball Prospectus:

…and plenty more, including excellent freestyle articles like this one from last Friday by Mike Gianella and this one from last Wednesday by Jason Collette.

Hopefully that gives you a taste of what to expect this season and whets your appetite enough to return to the site on a regular basis.

You folks are doing an amazing job. I'm 9 rounds into a SC draft and have used draft aid from the start. Its almost like cheating on a math test. It allows you to see the trees in the forest . And what about a little humor along the way : BP has got it. A friend has BaseballHQ. The projections are incomplete, most reports are from 2012 and the site is clunky. I have yet to find a site so good as yours and at a low price. Keep up the amazing work.

Rolling dice...sigh. The many hours I spent doing that in my youth...and adulthood. I am convinced that much of my passion for baseball came from my first APBA set in 1960. SOM came later. I mean, I had All-Star Baseball with the spinner, but that didn't have all the players (although it did have old-timers). But when I saw the APBA ad on the back of Baseball Digest and sent away for it, it led me to keeping stats, analyzing stats,and thinking about players in a whole different way.

WOW!! This is all very impressive. Thank you for all the Fantasy content that you are putting out. Just curious? What made you go in the direction of full blown Fantasy goodness? 5 years ago did you envision having all the content that you are releasing this year? I love Tower of Power Fantasy Hour and I am excited about the upcoming content. Keep up the great work.

Thanks! I think we always wanted to build out a strong offering but didn't have the right mix of people or just the amount of people we have now. The production of fantasy products is a natural extension of our regular content so there's no reason why we shouldn't be making it available.

They are a mixed bag. I've played in one with a mix of bloggers and Yahoo! writers where their was discussion about changing batting average to on-base percentage. Hopefully some of the other writers can speak to their experience, but I've enjoyed including OBP in one of my leagues with friends.

This will be year no. 26 for our AL-only league (which now technically has 16 owners, so we also use the NL West, but I digress . . . ), and we're making the switch this year from BA to OBP. We're also adding runs and strike-outs to complement the regular (i.e., HR, RBI, SB, ERA, WHIP, W, and Sv) categories.
